MO - Grief & protests follow shooting of teen Michael Brown #24

[Lovejac]

The belligerent <modsnip> lady was yelling, "I was walking with the chief, and I fell." She and <modsnip> Umar may have tripped over each other, causing a domino effect. The protesters intentionally separating Chief Jackson from his protection squad and preventing their reaching him in the march was the catalyst for LE moving in.

I was so scared when I saw them pull Chief Jackson into the crowd. I was like, they are going to kill him! I'm glad his officer went after him.

And that woman I was like, PLEASE pull her shirt down. It was worth watching this video just to see Umar Lee handcuffed and led away though.

An open letter from protesters about last night's events in #Ferugson http://www.scribd.com/doc/241069325/Protester-Open-Letter-9-26-14-Ferguson &#8230;

http://www.scribd.com/mobile/doc/241069325

"scripted apology...The video did more harm than good."

"Chief Jackson told the police officers lined up to stand down."

"Seven peaceful, lawful protestors were arrested." - several identified within the letter

"Only one arrested protestor as been released." - at time of letter

Sounds like they want every LE present stripped of ther job. Oh, and police are holding the prisoners "hostage".

:giggle: at distraction campaign.

I hope they lose the key to the cell that he's in.

Lol. This just made me think of his proposed hunger strike.

This seems to me to support the premise that many of these so called protesters are in violation of Missouri law.

Protester tells police you have initiated war. You don't know what pain is....yet #Ferguson #stl #MikeBrown


If you're not resigning tonight Chief Jackson you just need to take your home protester says #Ferguson #stl #MikeBrown

I'm in a police van in the #ferguson pd parking lot. No idea why I was arrested, probably going to need bail money.

"For no reason" seems to be a common refrain in Ferguson.

Yep, and blocking the intersection, shoving someone, wandering through motorists, and how about disturbing the peace?

Arrested last night

Did the read the article??? OMG - where to begin??? If that isn't the most mob-hugging police-hating piece of "journalism" I have ever seen, I really don't know what is!

As an American citizen, I expect, demand, that the laws be upholded. There is plenty of video and audio evidence to arrest many people. When a citizen and his family is threatened, according to the laws we the people into place, the person uttering the threats has commited a crime and should be arrested. Not only my opinion, but the law.

From Sstar's post:

Gotnews now has two different police sources in the Ferguson and St. Louis area sending in material. We also now have a photographer on scene to capture what&#8217;s really going on.

Unfortunately outside agitators, the New Black Panther Party in particular arrived that afternoon and immediately began stirring things up and creating a situation that rapidly spiraled out of control. The Ferguson Police came under siege and attack and Tom had no choice but to initiate a &#8216;Code 1000&#8242;, and subsequently Code 2000&#8242; (a mutual aide agreement between St. Louis area departments)request for assistance from all area departments to deal with the massive riot that was beginning.

REAL police who were being fired upon, ambushed, assaulted and attacked nightly.

Gotnews editor in chief Charles C. Johnson also began tweeting what he learned from yet another police source&#8211;this time one very close to Chief Jackson.

Thank God for the new media and twitter, or the narrative might've buried the truth. Moo

New Black Panthers have been present at most of the #Ferguson protests I've photographed..

Poor, poor officer Wilson. He will never be safe in that town..and likely anywhere else if people know about him shooting MB.

Heck, at this point enough money has been raised for him that he could buy his own island, lol!

That, or get a complete makeover via plastic surgery. I'm thinking maybe Brad Pitt. Who doesn't love Brad Pitt :giggle:

A great man died this week: http://www.postandcourier.com/artic...leston-police-chief-reuben-greenberg-has-died

Chief Reuben Greenberg, black and jewish, was one of a kind, and the link above doesn't mention one of my Greenberg favs. The tattered remnants of the KKK came to Charleston to march and the outcry was immediate. Greenberg met with the Grand Poobah and said he'd not only make sure the marchers would be safe, he'd march with them to make sure. Down the street they went with hoards of angry anti-KKKers, many young and black, trailing them on both sides all the way.

The article did include Greenberg's famous/infamous order to whack, but don't arrest, Hurricane Hugo looters, because the jail couldn't hold them all. Reuben Greenberg was a beloved figure to the day he died, and it wouldn't surprise me if Chief Jackson and others followed his incredibly successful LE career closely.

Yes, we are so proud Reuben was ours. He was a remarkable man. He was a lifesaver for Charleston :loveyou:

There are/were so many great black men and women, ones I would have loved to know, to talk to, to be with. It's such a shame so much of our time is being taken up with these ignorant thugs.

Bahahahaha :hilarious: nice try and all, but I was watching the LIVE FEED (well except for when the person recording intermittently covered it with their hand) and I saw EVERY single thing the protesters did and said, so, yeah, nice try.

But hey, I will give you props for spelling words correctly, but your grammar and punctuation need a little work. Keep trying though, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it

We just took a huge blow , we now have to leave the Andy Wurm protest site

Wow. I missed all of this last night. Just watched this video.
Whose brilliant idea was it to shove the Chief out there in the middle of an angry mob?

My hats off to him, that's bravery,

Wow. Protestors are now accusing Jackson of being drunk last night, and Nadal's retweeting all of it.
